'He BETRAYED MAGA!' Tim Dillon On Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson, Iran, Israel & More
5/19/202653 min
Tim Dillon is a successful comedian, actor, writer and podcaster - and it was on his podcast, just days before the presidential election, that JD Vance explained how a war on Iran would be in Israel’s interests, but not America’s. And while Dillon is often called ‘MAGA’ he now says that movement is the ‘biggest con in history’. He joins Piers Morgan to discuss Donald Trump’s effect on the Republican Party, Joe Rogan, comedy and how the world may be changed by Artificial Intelligence. Then; Piers also speaks to president of the Cambridge University Society of Women, Maeve Halligan, who has garnered attention for her rousing speech on the trans movement, in which she said: “Don’t tell me to be kind if being kind involves lying to and medicalising kids, betraying lesbian and gay people, rolling back women’s hard fought-for rights, and hurling threats at those who object.” Learn more about your ad choices.
